@@LucasCatania17 bro you are a whole month ahead of last year! So awesome!! this year is going to be the best yet!

Thanks for making these videos!!! The joy you are receiving skiing already this year is so infectious!!! So cool that you are already running into channel watchers on the hill who come and say hello! Let me know if you saw the comment I left on the last video about how to get the Diesel heater cleared of soot build-up. I think that will correct the issues happening now. Is your heater one of the ones that compensates for high altitudes? If not, at some point, perhaps an upgrade to unit that can deal with higher elevations would be something to consider. I know there are now some inexpensive Chinese ones with automatic altitude calibration. Don't want you to freeze your baby batter storage devices off on cold nights. Looking forward to the next video, Cheers, Mo-

hey morgan. thanks for watching the videos! i did see the comment you left on the other video! thank you for the advice. it seems to be working well now at the lower elevations! and yes the heater i have has a built in altimeter to compensate the air/fuel mix, but it seems to be struggling at the elevation of 11k feet. appreciate all the support and wisdom as always!

When Breck opens, if you're looking to park overnight close to the mountain check out the airport lot. The signs say no overnight parking but they never check it on the south side of the lot, and it's completely free. First time watching your videos but I'm checking out all the summit early season ones I see. If you end up parking there look for the Vermont plates on a truck camper, that's me haha.

Dude! Since you have so much dialogue in your videos why don't you wear a lav mic and sync the audio later? Something like a Tascam DR-10L would allow you to record for hours to an SD card and with Premiere or FCPX it is now so easy to sync tons of audio to video so fast. Even for your dialogue inside of the van it would make a difference. Good dialogue audio makes all the difference. I am not a Pro, video for me is just a hobby.
